Wow
That got dark fast. Lol Not a bad idea as far as a silly mode gun goes, though.

Also, it's "Beretta".
It's a reference to the movie "Johnny Dangerously", which is hilarious. The antagonist uses it.
single action army may be a nice addition any more embellishments you might want made, sawn off is already happening in a way, but sadly no 93r as it's more niche and wouldn't really fit a role
Makes sense.

You know I've been suggestion a lot guns, maybe we should have something more old school.

an op Compound bow with laser sight EXtreme ACcuracy Tasked Arrows Exacta arrows delevloped by darpa to curve the arrows to make them like the bullets from wanted but arrows.

Or a crossbow that shoots small glass vials of myr venom gifted from Briha herself.

no crossbows/bows sadly as fen has already deemed it's class of weaponry should be weakest out of all weapons since this is a space game and 'the fuck you flinging pieces of wood at me fer' is the expected response from bad guys in armor made of spaceship parts

also the m79 i plan to implement is going to be a 'riot control' luxation gas canister launcher, as well as having purchasable luxation gas grenades since there isn't too many lust weapons that aren't straight up slut rays

It makes sense, but it's kinda unfortunate. A cool bow-wielding character isn't really viable past Tarkus.

A space archer is a cool idea.

On the other hand, someone should really notify Hawkeye of the weakness of bows. He would be better off with some other weapon against Thanos. XD

Not like arrows can't be made of the material that punctures spaceships, with advanced tech to make them fly further and faster with less effort so you have more damage and can fire faster.

I absolutely love archery, and while I accept bows being weaker, and don't even play a ranged fighter, I still think they should be stronger than they are.

Although either way I will use the weak Shock Bow, because it shocks people and I think that's cool.

they are if you don't mind switching to lust tactics on myrellion and also dooming a species, mhenga you and get tanis's bow which is good for a while, and if you can get to uveto you can get the hardlight bow. granted you are a viable threat the entire time you just aren't as much of a threat as someone using one of the many other weapons. now zengshi however is a different story entirely since no bow has been made to compete with level 10 enemies yet

Fair enough. I did use Tanis' bow as my primary weapon until Myrellion.

yeah that's why i said expected response not right response, the hardlight bow for example should be a massively devestating weapon as the string and arrow are made of hardlight and can essentially be near weightless and could be programed to launch as speeds close to mach 10 without requireing a draw of more than a few pounds. the reasoning behind this is that it being hard light the string could be programmed to deform under pressure while returning to its resting state at near light speed

What you posted looks fine.

Just like to refer you to thebiologist, who basically wrote all the guns kattom sells. Its pretty much the standard for how a itempack should be done.

unfortunately he's been gone since april and his design doc links aren't much help as one is basically a collection of tooltips/descriptions, one is his breakdown on how he's designed his weapons, and the last one is his raw coding data which i can't make heads nor tails of

hardlight bow

I have used Tanis's bow plenty, but I never messed around with the hardlight bow, as the desire to rp a character like that hasn't been really strong lately. Thinking about it, I have used Tanis's bow past Tarkus, I just didn't remember it being all that great past that point.

switching to lust tactics on myrellion

I actually have never done a character based on or good with lust attacks, only using them when absolutely needed.
Maybe it's time for a lust-inducing archer Steele. haha

You know it's shit like that the fen does that makes not like playing this game sometimes, it's just the fact that shit gets nerfed to all hell or attacks and abilities end up being utter shit because Fen doesn't want one thing being too good in the game. I understand not wanting something being too good but if you have a number of different really good weapons for different types of classes and have them being used the right way you don't have to worry about nerfs or making things weak because people play differently from each other.

Or in a different way have us make the guns in game and go through a bunch of crap to have a gun moded to become better instead of just having them be worthless and weak.

Sorry I brought that up but it just gets on my nerves when like fen says this one thing is too good and gotta be nerfed or this one thing has to be weak so everyone doesn't feel they need to get it, bullshit, I hope I don't derail this section with this.

Just to kinda not keep this on the subject above what about those flak jackets I mentioned or like a gas mask assessory to avoid being hit with gas or anything or maybe like an elephant gun rifle

Lame. I've played a number of Sci-Fi games where the bow is pretty cool.

Viewer discretion advised. Contains blood and violence.


Crisis 3 Wiki: The Predator Bow
A normal human can lift around 1000lbs max. When in a fight or flight response, that can reach up to 3000lbs. The nanosuit has double the strength of a normal human. The highest draw weight on the bow is listed as being the highest it can go for a suit wearer to draw it. Therefore, the draw weight could possibly be around 6000lbs.

Edit: Corrected sloppy grammar.

IMHO you all are looking at bows in a futuristic setting completely wrong.

What did they do with tanks with obsolete cannon calibers? Fit smooth bore barrels on them and they exclusively launched ATGMs.

It doesn't matter that average damage per turn is lower than contemporary weapons, give us more bow special attacks m8.

Let's just get back to the old conversation about the guns, how many do you have now for Briha to sell and are you still considering Flak jackets? I hope I'm not sounding like a broken record asking about those but those are probably some of the only body armor I can think around the time, unless you wanna go with that really dumb bulky prototype protective gear

If we could get some kind of early type of juggernaut suit it'd be pretty cool.

Wouldn't really be a point other than the sheer cool-factor though. lol Unless it was really protective but so heavy it kept you from moving fast and dodging an attacks. Just a though. haha

it would generally be a light armor that i'd write as in my mind briha got the designs and materials from steele tech/akadi r&d for their next gen lab security armor/uniform

If you want something to be used with power armor (or just really strong taurs), I would suggest the Metal Storm (videos linked below). It comes in multiple variants, including 40mm grenade, although it might be a bit more advanced than you were looking for. For regular use how about a Gyrojet rocket pistol/carbine/rifle?

seems a bit out of her league, not to mention i'm trying to get a general consensus when it comes to the weapons, hence why most of the ones already listed are kinda 'lowest common denominator'
